Voting Has Just Closed In West Virginia!!

[Jeff Jones]

Hillary crushed Obama and netted 9 out of the 28 delegates.

It was a LANDSLIDE!

The only people who seem to care are the cable TV networks talking heads..

[THE SHRINK]

I wonder if this could be why?

Like Pennsylvania, West Virginia has a substantial population that is 65 or older — about 15 percent.

Only about 14 percent have a college degree.

And 95 percent of the population is white.

About three percent of West Virginia voters are African-American.

AND A REPUBLICAN!!

[Jeff Jones]

That's exactly what can you cannot say in America today.

Hillary wins if the electorate is white. These raicists!!! Welcome Mountain Momma Hillary in West Virginia.

Obama wins with 95% blacks. This is portrayed as a caring, thoughtful vote by political scientists..

Even if it were beyond this nonsense, Hillary can't win.

[THE SHRINK]

You left out Whites WITHOUT a College degree...

You elitist you!!!

Election 2008: Presidential, Senate and House Races Updated Daily

West Virginia is a state tailor-made for Hillary Clinton. There are no rich people, no creative types, few blacks, and few liberals. There are a lot of relatively poor people and some blue-collar workers. The state ranks last in the nation in median household income and has the lowest percentage of the population with a college degree of any state in the country. Only two cities (Charleston and Huntington have 50,000 people and only six cities have 20,000 people or more. The popular image of the state of one being full of poor hillbillies living in mountain cabins unfortunately has a certain amount of truth to it.

As a consequence of these demographics, Hillary Clinton is expected to do very well in West Virginia. Getting 2/3 of the vote is plausible. If she does get this in each of the state's three congressional districts, she gets 4 district-level delegates per CD, for a total of 12 to his 6. With 2/3 of the vote, she will get 5 at-large delegates to his 2 and 2 PLEOs to his 1. Thus she is likely to win 19 pledged delegates to his 9 for a net gain of 10 delegates. Next week Kentucky votes and Oregon (which has only mail-in votes) will finish voting. They are likely to cancel each other out.

Barack Obama has said if his association with Rev. Jeremiah Wright is on the table, then John McCain's association with Charles Keating is too. Executive summary: Keating was a crooked banker who bilked thousands of people out of their life savings. When the feds caught up with him, he made large campaign contributions to McCain and four other senators, who then promptly tried (unsuccessfully) to keep him out of federal prison. Of course all that was 20 years ago, but Obama is going to argue if my association with unsavory people 20 years ago is an issue, then so is yours.

JC, thank you..
But really, nobody cares about West Virginia.

Barack will beat McBush ...

Two weeks ago, an NBC/WSJ poll found an interesting trend in American public opinion: after hearing about Jeremiah Wright’s controversial sermons in a constant loop for months, voters were more concerned with John McCain’s association with Bush than Obama’s association with his former pastor. (Specifically, 43% of respondents were worried about McCain and Bush; 32% about Obama and Wright.)

Today, a new Gallup poll points to a similar public sentiment.

George W. Bush may do as much damage to John McCain’s chances of being elected as Jeremiah Wright does to Barack Obama’s, according to results of a recent USA Today/Gallup poll.


The May 1-3 poll finds 38% of likely voters saying McCain’s association with Bush makes them less likely to vote for McCain, while 33% say Obama’s association with Wright diminishes their likelihood of voting for Obama.

A strong majority of Americans (64%), including a near majority of Republicans (47%) said the Wright issue will not have any effect on their vote.

JC:

damn right it is !!! ... Just like McBush's wife not wanting to show her tax returns is an issue since the GOP run Media in this country hammered over and over again how Teresa Kerry neeed to show her tax returns in 2004

So you're saying Hillary can garner the Hee-Haw vote?

Childers taking out Davis in Mississippi last nite was huge!!!

the Democrats’ third straight special election pickup in three months ....

The results amount to a rebuke of the Republican strategy of trying nationalize the race by tying Childers to Sen. Barack Obama and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Obama held low approval ratings in the district, but the nearly $2 million that GOP groups poured into northern Mississippi failed to make the race a referendum on the national political landscape.

Republicans dispatched a lineup of heavy hitters in the campaign’s final week, including a pre-election stop Monday by Vice President Dick Cheney. President Bush, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and First Lady Laura Bush recorded automated calls urging voters to support Davis.

A GOP House leadership aide told Politico last week that “if we don’t win in Mississippi, I think you are going to see a lot of people running around here looking for windows to jump out of.”

"His victory has sent a political thunderbolt across America tonight," DCCC chairman Chris Van Hollen said in a statement. "It is yet another rejection of the House Republican agenda, the Bush Administration’s misguided policies, and John McCain’s campaign for a third Bush term."


* PLEASE CONTINUE TO SEND OUT "HEAVY HITTERS" LIKE LAURA BUSH !!!
